I know about the pains you can get at the front but could the pain in my back be connected to my diveticular?

    Gaz. I say most definitely. I always get lower back discomfort with a flare-up. I don't get pain, but more of a lower backache.

    Sounds pretty familiar for me, back pain lower left side and front lower left abdomen. Mines just flared up for some reason after a good period, trying figure what the trigger was that has caused it.

    Yes it could.  My osteopath told me that all the lower muscles become tense during a flare up, and that could radiate into back pain.

      Good call by your osteopathic doctor. I like them because they know the muscles and can treat symptoms relating to illness.
